Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Campfinally has a release date. Originally intended to be released in the spring of 2022, Nintendo delayed its release indefinitelydue to the ongoing war in Ukraine. However, listings appeared online several weeks ago that suggested a release was imminent. Today’s Nintendo Director confirmed we won’t have much longer to wait.
A remake of the original Advance Wars games for the Game Boy Advance, Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp is a turn-based tactics game where you command soldiers and military hardware to take on opposing forces from rival nations. Expect the same characters, units, story, and largely the same maps as the original games, but redesigned from the ground up. Expect remade visuals for the Switch, new animations for units and commanding officers, and new features likefour-player multiplayer in versus mode. And unlike the original, you’ll be able to play the game online without having to pass your Game Boy around a table.
